Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect After five days of germination, total nitrogen increased slightly in all three pea varieties.
- Intervention effect Total nonprotein nitrogen increased markedly after germination.
- Intervention effect Free amino acid nitrogen increased markedly after germination.
- Observation Germinated seeds had total nitrogen ranging from 3.49 to 4.98 g/100g dry weight.
- Observation Germinated seed protein nitrogen ranged from 2.60 to 3.48.
- Observation Germinated seed nonprotein nitrogen ranged from 0.893 to 1.502.
- Observation Germinated seed free amino acid nitrogen ranged from 0.408 to 1.313 g/100g dry weight.
- Mechanism Altered amino acid patterns suggested protein and amino acid turnover.
